What is the TAF Review 2026

Aerodrome Forecasts (TAFs) help pilots and operators make safe and informed decisions. They support flight planning and help operators meet aviation requirements.

The bureau regularly reviews TAF services funded by the Meteorological Service Charge (MSC). The TAF Review 2026 assesses whether current TAF services remain fit for purpose, aligned to industry needs, and deliver a value-for-money national network.

The review was undertaken with Airservices Australia, the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) and the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications, Sport and the Arts.

Proposed changes to TAF services

The TAF Review 2026 proposes:

  • 191 TAF services remain unchanged
  • 2 new TAF services
  • 8 changes to existing TAF services
  • 12 MSC-funded TAF services cease.

The review proposes no changes to most TAF services.

The Consultation Report outlines the proposed changes, explains how the review was conducted, and outlines how to provide feedback.

These are proposed changes only. We will consider feedback received during the consultation period before making final recommendations.
